NAME

       kdemangen.pl - automatically create a draft manpage for a KDE app

SYNOPSIS

       kdemangen.pl /path/to/application

DESCRIPTION

       kdemangen.pl  will  automatically  create a draft manpage for a KDE application.  Manpages
       are always better when hand-tailored, but this should give you a fairly good start.

       To create the manpage, it will use the --author and --help-all output for the  application
       passed  on  the command line.  It will also use the description in the Debian control file
       if one is available.  To make use of this additional feature, you  must  run  kdemangen.pl
       from within the debian/ subdirectory of the application sources.

       The new manpage will be written to standard output.

       This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

WARNING

       This  utility will only work for a full KDE application that uses KCmdLineArgs (which most
       full KDE applications do).

EXAMPLE

              cd /path/to/kde/srcs/kdeedu/debian
              kdemangen /usr/bin/kstars > kstars.1
